ARG0000fyb - is the edge-on spiral the host of the extended radio emission?

    SDSS J130143.51+525327.2, with z_sp 0.033, is quite local. It's also a disk galaxy, possibly a bulgeless one:

    Is it the host of the FIRST radio emission, with the weird morphology?

    Or is it, perhaps, the STAR SDSS J130142.71+525330.4?

    Boilerplate: SDSS image per http://skyservice.pha.jhu.edu/DR10/ImgCutout/getjpeg.aspx, FIRST (red) contours derived from the FITS file produced using SkyView with Python code described in this RGZ Talk thread. Image center (J2000.0) is the galaxy SDSS J130143.51+525327.2; "z_sp" its SDSS spectroscopic redshift.

    Zooming out a bit, and adding NVSS:

    Does rather look like a doublelobe ... but what's the host?
